#MTVnailChallenge: 2. Orange & Stripes

HI! *waves*
I honestly think it is going to snow today! Because it's cold?? No!
It's coolish here in Pretoria but in a nice way. No sign of snow
though! Why then? BECAUSE I HAVE A POST UP BEFORE 11.30AM! What??
Yip, snow...or the apocalypse! Something is going down!

I started out by laying down 2 coats of China Glaze Recycle on
all my nails, except for my thumb. On my index finger, ring and pinky
I then placed a few strips of striping tape and went over it with 1
coat of Tip Top Solar Flare.

On my ring finger, I made a few “groups” of dots with Avon
Apricot Mystery and my dotting tool. When this was dry, I then
made a few random “C” shapes and squiggles with my nail art brush
on the “group” and Tip Top Solar Flare to make vintage
looking flowers. In between I placed a few dots with Avon Apricot
Mystery and Tip Top Solar Flare just to fill up the space
a little bit. Lastly, I just layed down 2 coats of Tip Top Solar
Flare on my thumb to finish off the look.

This didn't come out to bad in my opinion! Tip Top Solar Flare made
my camera completely spazz out because it is so deep and bright but
in real life, the grey and orange went beautifully together!
